Speech-language pathologists (SLPs) have extensive education and training to assess, diagnose, and treat speech, language, social communication, cognitive-communication, and swallowing disorders in children and adults. They will work with you to develop a treatment plan that is right for you and your unique needs.
Speech disorders occur when a person is unable to produce speech sounds correctly or fluently, or has problems with their voice or resonance.
Language disorders occur when a person has trouble understanding others (receptive language), or sharing thoughts, ideas, and feelings (expressive language).
Swallowing disorders (dysphagia) are feeding and swallowing difficulties, which may follow an illness, surgery, stroke, or injury.
